BearyBox would like to give this week's winner My Mind's Eye Just Dreamy II small accessories.

Here is my card!

The matte silver paper is embossed and the swirls are glittered in a positive/negative technique. The embossed rectangular black flap is also glittered (the raised parts only). I love this card. Looks so much better in real life.

Can you recognize the vines and birds? Hmmm? I embossed a plain off-white cardstock using the folder above (cant recall the name), then I started to cut along the edges. When I was finally done cutting I used my water based markers and coloured the vines in small patches in brown and dark brown. The leaves were done in the same manner, I used three shades of green. Then to make it look as if I had water coloured them and to merge the patches, I used my paint brush and some water. TA DA! The water brought out so many more colours. I was surprised to see green and red coming out of brown! After the vines were dry I pasted them on to a distressed off-white flap. Then I used a green layer to pop up the card against the dull tan background. Oh I did some stitching :o) too!

I made this card for my mum’s colleague. He will be giving this to his sister who is expecting a baby boy real soon. I saw something like this stroller online and decided to make my own version of it. I hope you guys like it.
